Patient's question:
Gastroscopy examination confirmed chronic non-atrophic gastritis. How can esophageal problems be ruled out? How can the absence of esophageal reflux be proven?Doctor's answer:
The gastroscopy did not detect esophageal inflammation, so it is basically possible to rule out gastroesophageal reflux disease. It is recommended to check for Helicobacter pylori infection. This can be done through a carbon-13 or carbon-14 test. If the infection is positive, curing Helicobacter pylori after treatment can be expected. The doctor inquired: The gastritis condition is quite severe, and it is recommended that the patient receive timely symptomatic treatment. It is hoped that the patient can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues, avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition. The above answers are hoped to assist you. Thank you.
